Its title makes the pitch plain: Danner's revolving bookcases, sold as the best in the world and available for purchase locally. The record gives no date, and the name Krebs comes only from an unverified shelflist card, so that attribution should be treated with caution. Revolving bookcases, which turned on a central post so a reader could reach many volumes from one spot, were a popular novelty in American homes and offices in the late 1800s. Advertisements like this one show how makers used bold claims to set their furniture apart from competitors.
